This is a thread about a book teaching trans women how to defend themselves against sexual assault. Why are you posting about Elmo?
>>40376688 (OP)
can someo who's smart about these things explain the why things that work for other people wouldn't work for trans women? I feel like basic self defense principles like running away if possible, being aware of what's going on around you and hitting your assailant in vulnerable places if it comes to that are pretty universal regardless of gender.

Well it’s true if your getting assaulted by a cis women and you fight back chances are your going to be the one police come to arrest they will take there word over yours, can’t be helped so you need to be smart about it.

It took me a while to realize that transitioning actually makes you less solid with cis girls since they’ve been socialized into victimhood and ignoring that socialization. You’re never anything but a filthy man who’s the reason they aren’t a hat model or some other dumb shit.

no i know it's true. terfs will seethe over it bc they're turned on by sexual violence against trans women >>40376972
when somebody randomly gropes you it's hard to have a rational, self-preservatory reaction. i have always frozen like a deer in headlights during sexual assault

Women generally feel safe around gay males and will take them into their friend group with no issue. If you scare women it's because they perceive you as a straight male who is mocking them.

Cis woman identity is based off massive privilege and resentment towards everyone else. Oh no we HAVE to have babies oh no why did MEN DO THIS. Literally insufferable, let’s hope for advanced society collapse.

People should mock them they’ve curled up inside their own personal Sesame Street that everyone is supposed to play a muppet in. It’s pathetic.

How about you read the book instead of assuming what it says? Jesus christ. Just get out of here actually. You're embarrassing yourself.
And um btw... do I... know you?
Why does the section about facing violence, say that the people don’t wanna escalate it further than what you escalate it to? That’s so fucking retarded. They already got in your face and are doing shit like the section admits. You have to show them you are violent and stare them eye daggers? That’s never fucking helped me. Have the writers encountered bullies and assholes before?

if a cis woman tries to assault you, you better hope she doesn't find out you're trans (i'm assuming you're stealth). even a cis man could leverage that knowledge against you in a courtroom. didn't the US legal system just reaffirm the "trans panic" defense?

The problem exists because that the aggressive narcissists are over-shadowing the nice shy girls that just want to live their lives and aren't bothering anyone. So you're getting judged harshly by the worst trannies that aren't really trans, and they're using your identity to try to manipulate people.

Groups like this genuinely feel threatened by other groups getting attention. I've seen black Americans claim that LGBT issues and mental illness are just "invented" to steal attention from black people all the time. Like they aren't a group with a fucking huge megaphone globally.

Almost like the entire system is dumbfuck stupid. Like racism is bad bad anti racism as its own substance is bad too. Critique is good but it doesn’t create existent anticritique

If I feel threatened >You're making me feel threatened! LEAVE ME ALONE!
If they won't stop >Last warning! Touch me and I'll shoot! LEAVE ME ALONE!
Walking away and trying to leave the entire time >I'm walking away from this situation! LEAVE ME ALONE!
that's how you handle rude clerks at the DMV. EZ PZ

I have actually. I knew how to go potty prior to reading this but I consider myself something of a scholar - as such it's important to keep up with the literary history of going potty and potty theory. Worthwhile read, brilliant protagonist writing.
